Agreed! WTH?
Went for a quick night ride tonight.. set up camp and just really got settled in tonight. We went out to eat for @Tramguage1’s 67th birthday. More folks coming tomorrow so pics will come, but we haven’t really taken many yet. I’m just riding copilot this weekend with @Kilo427, so I’ll be the beer drinking photographer DJ!

That end of the brake line should be pointed straight up, @jak9922 can confirm, but it looks like that is going to be stressed just sitting relaxed. That bend looks severe to me.

We talked about it when we installed. It does interfere with the bleeder screw when straight up. But we did lengthen the line between the caliper and the lower clamp. I will keep an eye on them, prolly turn them up a little. Thanks

That does look like a bad angle cant imagine a full lock left turn. Please straighten it up, makes me cringe.
